There Could Be No Greater Repudiation of Ryan Than Hurricane Isaac [View all]
This won't be a long post.
It's simple: look at all the wonderful images of rescues going on all around the Northern Gulf Coast.
I've been watching New Orleans TV for a number of hours and what you see is a most welcome sight: government doing its job.
The contrast between Ryan's "I've got mine and fuck you" speech that we will all be treated to tonight and the image of people and government employees working together to make a terrible situation less terrible could not be more clear.
Hurricane Isaac and the role of government actually functioning as it should reveals Ayn Rand to be a creepy, witless moron.
I reject Ayn Rand's "philosophy," and I reject selfishness and human isolationism.
You don't look to make political hay out of natural disasters, and that's not what I'm doing. I'm making hay out of the response, out of the powerful images of human beings working to help each other.
As I often say: "A Republicans is someone who has yet to meet with unexpected misfortune."
